Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles and Their Effect on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract: Magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles were prepared using coprecipitation and subsequently surface-functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). Nanoparticle morphology was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, while structure and stability were assessed through infrared spectroscopy and zeta potential, respectively. Average size of the nanoparticles analysed by dynamic light scattering was 89 nm, 123 nm, 109 nm, and 130 nm for unmodifie… Show more

“…The evaluation of the literature on Fe 3 O 4 activity in relation to S. aureus showed a variety of methodologies and results. 14,16,19,20,65,66 In our work, the broth microdilution method using UV 67 was initially tested, however, the results were not reproducible. Alternatively, the use of the agar dilution method 39 proved to be more reliable and reproducible.…”

“…Iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were prepared by co‐precipitation process in the presence of ammonium hydroxide. Surface functionalizing of the magnetic particles was then done using PEI, APTS, PEG, and TEOS . At the first place, FeCl 2 .4H 2 O (1.9g) and FeCl 3 .6H 2 O (5.4g) were dissolved in deionized water (100 mL) by mechanical stirring for 1 h. Calculated amount of PEI (4g), APTS (4.5g), PEG (2.5g), and TEOS (3g) were then added to the mixture under continuous stirring.…”

“…To avoid nanoparticle agglomerations, iron oxide nanoparticles were surface functionalized using polyethyleneimine (PEI), aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS), PEG, and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) before electrospinning with polyamide (PA) 6. 33,34 Hernández et al used electrospinning to prepare Nd 0.05 Bi 0.95 Fe 0.95 Co 0.05 O 3 fibers from a polymer blend solution, resulting in nanofibers with partly interesting curls. In addition, these fibers revealed conductivity above the usual ferroelectrical materials' range.…”
